\[
\frac{3}{4} x^{-4} y^2 \cdot 0.16xy^{-7} = \left(\frac{3}{4} \cdot 0.16\right) \cdot (x^{-4} \cdot x^1) \cdot (y^2 \cdot y^{-7}) = \left(\frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{16}{100}\right) \cdot x^{-4+1} \cdot y^{2-7} = \left(\frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{4}{25}\right) \cdot x^{-3} y^{-5} = \frac{3}{25} x^{-3} y^{-5} = \frac{3}{25x^3y^5}

в)
\[
(0.3p^6q^{-1})^2 = (0.3)^2 \cdot (p^6)^2 \cdot (q^{-1})^2 = 0.09 \cdot p^{12} \cdot q^{-2} = \frac{0.09p^{12}}{q^2}
